Qualitative and quantitative composition Active substance Halofuginone base (as lactate salt) 0.50 mg/ml Excipients Benzoic acid (E 210) Tartrazine (E 102) 1.00 mg/ml 0.03 mg/ml For a full list of excipients, see section 6.1 3. Pharmaceutical form Oral solution. 4. Clinical particulars 4.1 Target species New born calves. 4.2 Indications for use, specifying the target species In new born calves: Prevention of diarrhoea due to diagnosed Cryptosporidium parvum, in farms with history of cryptosporidiosis. Administration should start in the first 24 to 48 hours of age. Reduction of diarrhoea due to diagnosed Cryptosporidium parvum. Administration should start within 24 hours after the onset of diarrhoea. In both cases, the reduction of oocysts excretion has been demonstrated. 4.3 Contraindications Do not use on an empty stomach. Do not use in case of diarrhoea established for more than 24 hours and in weak animals. 4.4 Special warnings None. 2/12

4.5 Special precautions for use Special precautions for use in animals Administer after colostrum feeding, or after milk or milk replacer feeding only, using either a syringe or any appropriate device for oral administration. Do not use on an empty stomach. For treatment of anorexic calves, the product should be administered in half a litre of an electrolyte solution. The animals should receive enough colostrum according to good breeding practice. Special precautions to be taken by the person administering the veterinary medicinal product to animals To the user: Repetitive contact with the product may lead to skin allergies. Avoid skin and eye contact with the product. In case of skin and eye contact wash the exposed area thoroughly with clean water. If an eye irritation persists, seek medical advice. Wear protective gloves while handling the product. Wash hands after use. 4.6 Adverse reactions (frequency and seriousness) In very rare cases, an increase in the level of diarrhoea has been observed in treated animals. 4.7 Use during pregnancy, lactation or lay Not applicable. 4.8 Interaction with other medicinal products and other forms of interaction None known. 4.9 Amounts to be administered and administration route For oral use in calves after feeding The dosage is: 100 µg of halofuginone base / kg bw / once a day for 7 consecutive days, i.e. 2 ml of HALOCUR / 10 kg bw / once a day for 7 consecutive days. However, in order to make the HALOCUR treatment easier, a simplified dosage scheme is proposed: 35 kg < calves 45 kg: 8 ml of HALOCUR once a day during 7 consecutive days 45 kg < calves < 60 kg: 12 ml of HALOCUR once a day during 7 consecutive days For smaller or higher weights, a precise calculation should be performed (2 ml/10 kg). To ensure a correct dosage, the use of either a syringe or any appropriate device for oral administration is necessary. The consecutive treatment should be done at the same time each day. Once the first calf has been treated, all the forthcoming new-born calves must be systematically treated as long as the risk for diarrhoea due to C. parvum persists. 3/12

4.10 Overdose (symptoms, emergency procedures, antidotes), if necessary As symptoms of toxicity may occur at twice the therapeutic dose, it is necessary to apply the recommended dosage strictly. Symptoms of toxicity include diarrhoea, visible blood in faeces, decline in milk consumption, dehydration, apathy and prostration. Should clinical signs of overdosing occur the treatment must be stopped immediately and the animal fed unmedicated milk or milk replacer. Rehydration may be necessary. 4.11 Withdrawal period Meat and offal: 13 days. 5. PHARMACOLOGICAL PROPERTIES Pharmacotherapeutic group: Quinazolinone derivate, ATCvet code: QP51AX08 5.1 Pharmacodynamic properties The active substance, Halofuginone, is an antiprotozoal agent of the quinazolinone derivatives group (nitrogenous polyheterocycles). Halofuginone lactate (RU 38788) is a salt whose antiprotozoal properties and efficacy against Cryptosporidium parvum have been demonstrated both in in vitro conditions and in artificial and natural infections. The compound has a cryptosporidiostatic effect on Cryptosporidium parvum. It is mainly active on the free stages of the parasite (sporozoïte, merozoïte). The concentrations to inhibit 50 % and 90 % of the parasites, in an in vitro test system, are IC 50 < 0.1 µg/ml and IC 90 of 4.5 µg/ml respectively. 5.2 Pharmacokinetic particulars The bioavailability of the drug in the calf, following single oral administration, is about 80 %. The time necessary to obtain the maximum concentration T max is 11 hours. The maximum concentration in plasma C max is 4 ng/ml. The apparent volume of distribution is 10 l/kg. The plasmatic concentrations of halofuginone after repeated oral administrations are comparable to the pharmacokinetic pattern after single oral treatment. Unchanged halofuginone is the major component in the tissues. Highest values have been found in the liver and the kidney. The product is mainly excreted in the urine. The terminal elimination half-life is 11.7 hours after IV administration and 30.84 hours after single oral administration. 6.
